Discussions about CPUs often frame one instruction set architecture (ISA) against another—x86 vs. Arm, Arm vs. RISC-V, and so on. However, it’s common to use multiple CPU architectures in a single ...

If your Device Manager shows multiple processors, first check the model of processors in your computer. Many modern processors are built-in with numerous Cores and Threads. For instance, if your PC ...

RapidMind Multi-core Development Platform 3.0 helps developers fully leverage the processing power of multi-core x86 chips RapidMind is announcing on Monday software intended to help developers ...

A reader recently contacted us and asked a question worth answering in an article. How does Windows (and perhaps all OS's) take advantage of multiple cores? Alternatively, if this function is built ...

I have a 1.1GHz T-Bird, on an Asus A7A266 mobo, 128MB PC266 ram. When I assembled the thing (some time ago), at the bios I just selected the 1100MHz option on the CPU speed and left the CPU multiple ...

Until the early 2000s, the computer processors available on the market were essentially all single-core chips. There were some niche layouts that used multiple processors on the same board for ...

Demand for ever-higher performance from embedded devices is driving the creation of microprocessors featuring multiple cores. But as core counts rise, shared bus architectures common in some multicore ...

AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 leaks in CPU-Z benchmark with 128MB dual L3 cache (two 64MB CCDs, one 3D V-Cache) on X870E board.

From CPUs that overheated to those with poor performance—plus some that nearly killed the companies that made them.
